ANGKOR

Since 1996, Prof. Jaroslav Poncar is responsible for the photographic documentation of Angkor for the UNESCO World Heritage Programme. He thus spends a major portion of the year in Cambodia and no one surpasses his familiarity with this greatest ensemble of temples on earth that seems to extend infinitely into its surrounding jungles. Poncars best photographs are presented in this lavishly produced photo book, which is introduced by a text by John Keay, a specialist on Asia and bestselling author.
